A huge win for animal rights. It’s not perfect, but we shouldn’t let the absence of perfection get in the way of celebrating progress.
edit: Edited the title to clarify this is only for Mexico City, not all of Mexico.
In Mexico City, not all of Mexico. And:
The measure, among other things, will not allow bullfighters to use spades and swords to attack the animal, which in turn will have its horns covered to prevent injuries to humans.
It does not end bullfighting.
Yes, that’s why I said it wasn’t perfect. But it’s an improvement. I didn’t notice it was only for Mexico City, so thanks for catching that!
Thank you. As someone else who only skimmed headlines, I was like, “This isn’t nationally, right?”
So they can use, like, an axe or something? I feel like the bull got the worst end of this deal
Buy what about revenge? Can we still stab the bulls if they insult us?
Meanwhile, the bulls can still stab you to death for fun…
I’m pretty sure the consequences for a bull breaking the law are much worse than a human breaking the law…
